Preschool – Overview

We understand that learning happens across developmental domains. Play is the context for learning, both reflecting and contributing to children’s language-cognitive, social-emotional, and physical-motor skills. As children actively engage in play and interaction with their physical and social environment, symbolic thinking grows, mental reasoning emerges and the use of concepts increases, preparing children for the transition to more formal schooling. We will support children in:

Social-Emotional

Achieving a positive sense of self

Learning about differences and similarities among people

Taking responsibility for themselves and others

Behaving in a pro-social way, including building empathy, labeling and managing emotions, respecting their environment and others
